Hey guys, I'm excited to officially be a member of the forum!This forum has been an invaluable tool for me as I work on my C3 corvette. Luckily, it was in OK shape when I bought it so I haven't had to do a full restoration, but I've definitely put in 100+ hours making repairs which would not have been possible without the guidance from this forum. I'm hoping to pass along some of what I've learned and also take advantage of the awesome marketplace for vettes / vette parts. Looking forward to what's to come!

I added my car to my profile. 1969 small block convertible, white. Here is the best picture I have available at the moment, will have to get a better one at some point. Will probably be at it this weekend trying to track down a hiss that happens when I pull the headlight switch. Maybe I’ll get lucky and I’ll just have to reconnect one of the hoses behind the switch but I doubt it!
